I was referred by someone to come here and talk to Bob (the owner) about something in particular…read moreI've been looking for. He didn't have the item, but it's not easy to find and my expectations on that were very low. A friendly customer who Bob was helping before me overheard and they both offered me great advice for continuing the hunt for my treasure. I had a look around the shop, and found a beautiful (fragile) trinket I decided to purchase. Bob took extra special care in wrapping my item to make sure it would get home in one piece. It was clear he cared, even though my purchase only cost $5. (A steal). When I went out to my car, Bob had followed to take down the "open" flag and saw that I had my dog with me. He called out "next time you come please bring your dog in with you!" And that just made my day. Customer service is everything, and this place is as good as is gets. I am putting this on my "must visit" list for my future returns to coastal Maine.

Vacationing in Boothbay, Me and came across this wonderful shop filled with pottery, homemade…read morecrafts, Santa's from Japan and Germany, redware plates, cross stitched pictures, old rugs, large pottery jugs, Antiques of all sorts, all displayed in the owners barn behind her beautiful home. I have been making it a point to drive to Damariscotta where she is located right off Bristol rd downtown for many years. Joni is so sweet and such a pleasure to talk to, she has been in business for decades. I looked around and found an antique hand carved wooden German smoker, that when you pull the feet off from the body and insert a incense pellet in the appropriate place and light it so is starts burning and replace the feet, smoke comes out the Santa's mouth. I got him for a great price, yah! Had such a great time looking around!! This is a wonderful store, come and check it out! Debbie/ Mich

Wonderful shop that not only carries gifts, but antiques too. I have bought so many antiques from…read morethem over the years and even yesterday I bought a glass vase. It is a few levels of stuff. They have jewelry, antiques, gifts, glass, Christmas items, and so much more. Staff is very friendly and helpful. This is just an amazing shop, kinda off the beaten path, not right in the middle of things, near the Tugboat Inn. Prices are reasonable for the antiques and in line for the gifts etc. I always stop in when I am in Boothbay Harbor and I usually buy something too.

My wife and I entered Palabra excited to view all the antiques and treasures. Unfortunately the…read moreemployee immediately ranted and raved about our not wearing masks. I told her we were both vaccinated and that that was no longer necessary. She raised her voice when telling us that it didn't matter " you must wear masks anyway". As we turned to get our masks out of our car, she also said that we were required to spray disinfectant cleaner on our hands before entering. I saw 2 small bottles of hand cleaner on the counter and went to grab one. She yelled as she said that I was teaching for the wrong bottle! Now, we consider ourselves to be reasonable people. We donned our masks when told too, but spraying disinfectant on our hands too? When looking at antiques? Give us a break! Needless to say, this place lost two good customers due to the ridiculous and totally unnecessary and discourteous employee at this used antique store. Stay away.

This is an old school auction house. I was listening to the sale last week, and it was like listening to Bob Eldred - a great auctioneer and dear friend.

They run a variety of auctions throughout the year from high end to the dude next door variety. There is something for everyone. They make it easy to bid online if you cannot be present. Shipping costs are reasonable and auction costs are in line with industry standards. The staff is friendly and knowledgeable. It is a must to drop by and peak at the next group of auction items when in the Thomaston area. Their marketing campaigns are clever and epic as well. I have giggled aloud a few times when reading the emails.

The record keeping of this clothing resale store is prehistoric and pretechnologic. Basically, there is no record keeping, and no receipts, leading to utter chaos. They lost an item I had brought in to consign, and after I had checked the shop three weeks in a row to search their inventory to try and locate the item in their store, the response from them was: we don't have time to look for your item - you must do it yourself. There was never any acceptance on their part of the fact that my item was lost by them, nor any apology. Their concession to this fiasco was to offer me a credit for what I would have received if they had actually sold the item, which they did not do. Not recommended for consigners!

Just about every inch of wall is covered with a display showcase and there are also showcases around the center of the rooms. They have a LOT of silver. They also have a large selection of silver overlay (on glass) items. Items are not cheap, but browsing is like being at a museum, except that display cases are far more crowded than museum cases (and not labeled as museums would be). A breathtaking volume of silver.
